Description skierpage 2022-04-12 00:03:03 UTC 
SUMMARY
Both the flathub and kdeapps "master" flatpaks of Skrooge now cause warnings when you update that "org.kde.Platform//5.15 is end-of-life".


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Enter `flatpak install org.kde.skrooge` , or `flatpak update` if you already have the Skrooge flatpak installed.

OBSERVED RESULT
They warn:
    Info: org.kde.Platform//5.15 is end-of-life, with reason:
       We strongly recommend moving to the latest stable version of the Plaform and SDK
    Applications using this runtime:
       org.kde.skrooge

EXPECTED RESULT
No warning.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
  % flatpak remote-ls --runtime flathub | rg -i org.kde.platform
shows two runtimes on flathub:
    KDE Application Platform        org.kde.Platform                5.15-21.08
    KDE Application Platform        org.kde.Platform                6.2

I don't know what's different with 5.15-21.08 , but I have other KDE apps that use it that don't warn about it. Back in September 2021 there was commit https://github.com/KDE/flatpak-kde-applications/commit/1033de03fccfd63ac "Port all apps to 5.15-21.08".

I tried forcing Skrooge to use this runtime and got an error:
  % flatpak run --runtime=org.kde.Platform/x86_64/5.15-21.08 org.kde.skrooge
    skrooge: error while loading shared libraries: libicuuc.so.67: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
This might go away if it needs to be rebuilt.

The stable Skrooge build on flathub https://github.com/flathub/org.kde.skrooge needs a similar fix. BTW that has some tweaks, e.g. no more gengetopt patch, in addition to gratuitous whitespace differences.

One could be aggressive and change the nightly flatpak to use the 6.2 runtime.

Commit 9448e79 updated Skrooge's runtime last time https://invent.kde.org/office/skrooge/-/commit/9448e79
